Money is awarded and penalized for various actions that you complete throughout the game. Rewards and penalties can apply to you as an individual, or to your whole team (everyone on your team gets the reward or penalty). Money is used to buy weapons, equipment, and ammunition, although if you survive the round you get to continue the next round with what you had during the previous one.

Each player's bank maxes out at $16,000. Any money gained above this limit is lost.
